What are some good ear-bud headphones that dont cost like $200? I hate ipod headphones, and I used to always buy these Sony extra-bass ones for like $45 that I liked but I've broken like 5 pairs in a row (cord always loosens and loses the signal after like 6 months). Does anyone know of any decently priced headphones that have a nice full sound to them and don't sound like ipod headphones? Not looking to spend more than like $60-70. Those stupid Dr. Dre ones just make me angry looking at the price!!
Thanks! |

| I've been using Klipsch's. I paid around 80 dollars for mine I think? Anyways, great purchase. Had em for a year and a half and no problems... and some really great sound quality |

| Xone XD-20. Best bass response I've ever had in a pair of ear-buds. They're designed for DJs to get a feel for what a track would sound like played out in a club. |

Check out Logitech UE. I was going to say, M-Audio but it seems they stopped making them.
All I can say is, check out: http://www.bhphotovideo.com or http://www.shopbot.ca
They are usually cheaper than most online retailers in Canada and they ship to Canada (plus you still save money) |

I've been using the Shure SE115m+ that are compatible with the Iphone with the built in microphone for calls and a volume control. They come with multiply earbud sizes so that you can adjust them to suit your ear. Also half of the custom buds that come with it are earplug style, meaning you squish them so they expand in your ear, It makes a really great sound, seals the acoustics well. I've used both these and the bose ones and feel the quality is better with these ones, as the base is not so loud, making the overall sound perfect. They also are really great at cancelling noise that surrounds you.
Normally they go for $150, but I picked mine up at a future shop 2 years ago for $90, I can only imagine them being cheaper now. |

Klipsch S4s. I can talk about how good they are but if you look up some reviews, many people with actual knowledge and experience say they are the best you can get for that price range.
They retail for about $100 give or take $10. You can find sales quite often in the $70 range, saw them as a daily deal at Tiger a couple weeks ago for $50. |

I actually ended up buying a pair of S4i's last night! really happy with them so far! Just hope they dont start having issues in a couple months like all the other earbud headphones I've owned... good thing they come with a 2 year warranty.
Thanks for the advice guys! |

Most likely there won't be any issues. I have owned a pair for a year and a half, and NO problems so far |

| I've had my Shure E3C's for over 2 years and they've been great, but I'm sure there are other better ones out there by now. |
